Iguazu Falls

16 hours into the bus ride

Here's why Dan went to Iguazu Falls:

Email from Russell Brown:
What country are you in today?

Dan:
Today, Argentina.
61 degrees, partly cloudy. Chance of going to the Picasso exhibit.

Russell:
Please go here!!!!!!
I’ll give you some Adobe software in exchange for some of your photos.

Dan:
I think I can be bribed...

Russell:
I’ve always wanted to get there, but perhaps I’ll just have to bribe you to go there on special assignment for me.
CS4 is approaching quickly and I’m always on the lookout for new demo material.
The panorama feature has been newly improved and will start to stitch scenes into 360 panoramas.
I’d like to get some panoramas of the falls, that would be cool.
Have fun, let me know what happens.

Dan:
All Argentinian airlines are on strike indefinitely. The overnight recliner bus leaves here at 8pm and arrives at 1pm tomorrow. My tix to Iguazu are being hand-written now...

Russell:
You maniac! You are really going to go! What a blast!

Dan:
Wow — after 19 hours on a bus, it is totally amazing here. I spent an hour at "The Throat of the Devil" this morning, a place where almost 360 degrees of water plummet into a churning abyss! I've been shooting TONS of photos, but alas, the weather has been grey and raining! I've got over a dozen panoramic photo-sets, so we will see how they stitch together.

Russell:
So coooooooool!
That's one heck of bus ride!
Stay a few days and I'm sure the weather will change.
You are crazy! I love it!

Hi Dan

Very impressive waterfalls.

I've played that pig game before. I've even landed the ultimate move, which from memory is balancing on the snout and one ear. I don't recall it being that hilarious though. I think I played with my mom.

Lamely yours
